Unless safe, travel will not take place. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of security in the development of international tourism in Tabriz county. The research methodology is descriptive-analytical with the purpose of developmental application. Data were gathered through a questionnaire and SPSS software version 24 was used to analyze the information, 200 questionnaires were distributed by sampling method among tourists in the 2018 in the towns hip of Tabriz, Results indicated that, Prior to arriving in Iran, tourists did not have a proper understanding of the security situation in tourism. In this pessimism, the role of Western media and negative propaganda has been confirmed. Tourists, after confronting the facts, are well aware of the security situation in Iran. According to tourists, the existence of a special police force has increased the sense of security, but the presence of a large crowd of policemen has not been confirmed to increase the sense of psychological security. The results also indicate that there is a significant relationship between financial security and the incentive to travel back to Iran. Key words: Security, Advertising, Tourism, Tabriz event 2018. Introduction The tourism industry is the world's largest income-generating service industry with growth driven by many social and economic changes (Rasekhi et al, 2015). Tourism as a regular part of daily life is one of the most important sources of income(Golsar, 2015) And it is so important in the socioeconomic development of countries that economists call it "invisible exports" (Akbari and abonoori, 2015). The development of the industry requires the development of two hardware and software categories, which include the hardware, facilities, and facilities needed for tourists, roads and airports, and the software category for human factors, mental security and security factors. Tourists are dependent. It is important to deal with software issues in the current world (khalefeh soltani et al, 2013). There are many factors in tourism development that security is the most prominent. Comfort, convenience and security are very important issues that attract or repel tourists from all over the world. Without security in one country, it is impossible to form a mass tourism stream, because security is a basic human need, and without guaranteeing it, it will lose its effectiveness and impact, even if other components of tourism are high. They disappear in the shadow of insecurity. Today, the number of foreign tourists in a country are one of the 139 NAGHIZADEH, R. (2020). The Role of Securıty in the Development of International Tourism in Tabriz County (Case Study: Tabriz Event 2018). Safran Kültür ve Turizm Araştırmaları Dergisi, 3(2): 139-150. indicators of its security, because the large number of tourists in a particular country or place indicates the existence of security. Of course, this does not mean that any place that does not have a tourist does not have security (Motaghi et al, 2015). Presence of tourists in one country, in addition to economic development and cultural exchanges, is the best advertisement for security in that country (Brondoni, 2016). On the other hand, the role and impact of the tourism industry in delineating the national security of a country is such that most developed countries prefer to concentrate on tourism despite the presence of macroeconomic resources and income (Sidaee and Hodaee mogadam, 2009). Security and security are not the same. The sense of security is its psychological and social dimension. It may be safe, but for a variety of reasons, such as a history of insecurity or negative publicity, people may feel insecure; Be it (Hazel, 2015). Security is, in fact, the most important and underlying principle in the formulation of tourism development strategy in the world. The sophisticated tourism industry has a comprehensive relationship at the national and regional levels, and any insecurity and the use of violence at various levels will cause irreparable damage to the industry (Bianchi and Stephenson, 2015); One of the most important variables in this area are the functioning of the police and the role of the police and the media (Jesarati and Aghaee, 2015). Protecting the lives of guests and employees, property and commercial assets from the arrest of criminals, is the responsibility of the police to achieve security. The role of the police in tourism is to keep tourists safe from the potential dangers that may arise. Researchers have identified ten different types of risks for tourists that can be divided into six general categories: functional risks, financial risks, time risks, physical risks, psychological and social risks (Asli. and Boylu, 2009). Despite the efforts and efforts of the law enforcement agencies to ensure the safety of foreign tourists, crimes against them have been inevitable. Harassment, theft, missing (missing tourist due to unfamiliar routes), fraud and beating are the most common crimes against them. The largest crime against foreign tourists has been robbery. It should be noted that many foreign tourist thefts have been discovered by police following at the same time (Safaee, 2004). These cases have in some cases fueled the negative propaganda of insecurity in Iran. In recent decades, due to political and ideological issues, Iran has been hit by negative international media propaganda and faces a form of insecurity. It has been offered internationally, which has had a negative impact on foreign tourists entering the country. Therefore, this requires the need to pay more attention to monitoring the safety of tourists. From this point of view and the importance of security in tourism development, the present study measures the feeling of security of foreign tourists before entering Iran and the satisfaction of tourists with the security situation of the country after entering Iran. The relationship between tourism and a sense of security is analyzed from the perspective of foreign tourists entering Iran. Several studies have been done in this area, some of which are mentioned. Heidari Chineh and Soltani (2014) have done a descriptive and analytical study on the role of political stability and security in the development of tourism industry (Case study: Middle East region). The findings show that the sharp fluctuations in incoming tourists to the countries of the region are closely related to the political developments in the world. Jesarati and Aghaee (2014) have examined the role of security promotion in tourism development in Ardabil province. In this paper, using Pearson correlation tests and linear regression, we examine the relationship between police presence and promotional measures with tourism security and the relationship between security promotion and tourism 140 NAGHIZADEH, R. (2020). The Role of Securıty in the Development of International Tourism in Tabriz County (Case Study: Tabriz Event 2018). Safran Kültür ve Turizm Araştırmaları Dergisi, 3(2): 139-150. expansion. The results indicate that there is a direct relationship between the expansion of tourism and increased security and the expansion of police presence and increased publicity of this institution in increasing security resulting from tourism development. In a study, Motaghi et al. (2015) analyzed the role of security in the development of international tourism (case study, foreign tourists in Yazd) by descriptive and analytical method. The results indicate that tourists do not have a proper understanding of the security situation of the tourists prior to their arrival in Iran, and after entering Iran and facing the facts, they know and are satisfied with the security situation of the tourists in Iran. Asli & Boylu (2009) In a study they examined "How Safe City Plans Work as a Key Basis in the Tourism Industry: A Case Study of Putrajaya City". Researchers believe that security is one of the prominent issues among tourists in the field of urban tourism. The importance of the issue has been such that it has led to the implementation of the Safe City program since 2004. The statistical population of this study is local tourists. Respondents believe that crime prevention programs in the Safe City program are an important approach for the safety of tourists. Murat Payam (2015) In an investigation, the role of the police in creating tourism security in Bosnia and Herzegovina was analyzed in a descriptive and analytical manner. The results show that security is an important factor in destination selection that can be provided by tourism police. Therefore, it is believed that "tourism police" can help to create a positive image of the destination. To this end, the provision of security must be regulated by the tourism police. Mawby et al (2016) In a study addressing the security concerns of tourists from tourist destinations with examples from Romania in a descriptive and analytical way. The results showed that security issues (theft and other social characteristics) are the main factors of tourist satisfaction. Lack of anxiety and insecurity, along with access to good health care and easy access to money transfer facilities, information centers and more. Some of the factors contributing to the development of the tourist destination are listed. Brondoni (2016) In a study, it explored global tourism and terrorism and security management in a descriptive and analytical way. The results show that some Mediterranean regions have attracted a lot of tourists due to the high security conditions.

O. Box 92260, 1090 AG Amsterdam, The Netherlands * Corresponding author Abstract This catalog comprises 56 genera and 266 species of mite names of superfamilies Raphignathoidea and Tetranychoidea recorded from Iran at the end of January, 2013. Data on the mite distributions and habitats based on the published information are included. Remarks about the incorrect reports and nomen nudum species are also presented. Key words: Checklist, mite, habitat, distribution, Iran. Introduction Apparently the first checklist about mites of Iran was that of Farahbakhsh in 1961. Subsequently the following lists were published: “The 20 years researches of Acarology in Iran, List of agricultural pests and their natural enemies in Iran, A catalog of mites and ticks (Acari) of Iran and Injurious mites of agricultural crops in Iran” are four main works (Sepasgosarian 1977; Modarres Awal 1997; Kamali et al. 2001; Khanjani & Haddad Irani-Nejad 2006).
